Recipe - Mr Peanut Chicken On A Stick

PEANUT SAUCE
One half cup Water
1/3 cup Rice vinegar
1/3 cup Creamystyle peanut butter
2 tablespoon Reducedsodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon Sugar
4 Cloves garlic; peeled
2 teaspoon Arrowroot
One fourth teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes;
(up to 1/2)
2 ounce Chicken tenders
cup Hot cooked brown rice
Sprigs of fresh cilantro;
for garnish (optional)

1. Sauce: In blender combine all ingredients for sauce. Blend until smooth.
Transfer to small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly
until heated through and thickened. Do not boil. Cool. Pour half of sauce
into sealable plastic bag, setting remainder aside. Add chicken to bag.
Seal and marinate in refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. Meanwhile, soak four
6inch bamboo skewers in water, to prevent burning during cooking.

2. Preheat broiler. Thread chicken tenders on skewers.

3. Broil skewers close to heat, 1 to 2 minutes each side or until cooked
through. In small saucepan heat reserved sauce. Divide hot rice among 4
serving plates. Top with chicken. Drizzle with heated sauce, and serve
extra sauce in a bowl. Garnish plates with sprigs of fresh cilantro, if
desired.
